小学四年级英语作文范文(20篇)

父母的爱，是慈祥的笑容，是亲切的话语;是严格的要求，热情的鼓励。

有一个星期天，我发现妈妈上班很很辛苦回到家后要管我做作业还要做家务十分辛苦，时不时的都在夸奖我，鼓励我;爸爸是建筑师不论是工作日还是周末都在工地之间奔波但每个星期天都会帮妈妈做家务，对我很严格;今天我来帮爸

爸?妈妈做吧。我一边做家务，一边想：一会儿爸爸妈妈回家看到我把家里收拾的干干净净的一定会表扬我的。大约过了一个小时我听见了开门声妈妈回来了，刚进门一看见家里的样子，眼睛里亮亮的，说：“天哪，家里什么时候如此干净!”我兴奋极了忙对妈妈说：“妈妈我已经把家务活做完了，您和爸爸今天能休息了。”“你真能干”妈妈笑着对我说，我虽然没吃蜜但心里像吃了蜜一样甜;我虽然没喝酒但想喝了酒一样脸上红红的。我想以往一样问妈妈：“妈妈，爸爸要多久回来?”“大概七八点钟吧。”妈妈回答到。我听后，心想：妈妈都这样夸我了，指不定，并不会更加夸奖我的。

时间一分一秒的过去，七点半了，爸爸还没有回来。快八点时。爸爸终于推门而入我兴奋极了，忙说道：“爸爸我把家里东收拾干净了。”爸爸看了几眼说：“还可以，做的还不错，但还有一些地方要再认真点如这桌子没擦干净，电视机的屏幕还是花的……”我再也受不了，冲进房间里心想：为什么爸爸先表扬了我，又要给我当头一棒呢?妈妈走进来摸着我的额头说：“没关系，这次么做好不代表永远做不好只要我们再接再厉一定会成功的。”

几年后我会忆起当年的事，我明白了爸爸是爱我的，想我做得更好，不要被表扬冲昏了头脑，不要一杯表扬就高傲自满。我谨慎的把握着我生活的小船在爱的鼓舞下向前驶去。

中国有许多传统佳节，我最喜欢除夕和春节这两个传统节日。

春节的前几天，我和妈妈乘着爸爸的车子来到了醴陵老家。除夕和春节这两个节日是连在一起的，不过我更喜欢春节。这一天我早早地起了床，今天家里来了许多客人，中午的时候这些客人给了我不少压岁钱，我就依依向他们拜年表示感谢。到了晚上，我们一家人在一起吃了团圆饭，爷爷要我和阳哥哥组织一场家庭晚会,我先用春节联欢晚会的开场白介绍我们表演的节目。节目中我用琵琶弹奏了三个节目，阳哥哥用小提琴也演奏三个节目，最后一个节目是我和阳哥哥合奏《采蘑菇的小姑娘》，表演的时候，阳哥哥拉完了我马上弹起了下部分，

不让他们觉得是两首曲子，弹的过程中我都已经陶醉在这首曲子中，弹完整首曲子后台下立刻响起雷鸣般的掌声，我看见大人们的眼神中包含着赞叹，包含着期望，表演完之后爷爷他们都给了我们压岁钱作为奖励，我们俩又一起去老家门口放烟花和冲天炮，我们用打火机点燃烟花和冲天炮的引线，刹那间烟花炮竹开始燃放，时而像火箭一样“嗖”的一下冲上了天，时而像开放的花朵在对我们微笑，时而像小草在对我们摇摆着头。我们两个手里都拿着几根烟花，一边用手画圈，一边跑，玩得不亦乐乎!

那天我们既收了压岁钱，又玩了烟花和冲天炮，你们说这一天是不是愉快的春节呀!

秋姑娘穿着金色的长裙，迈着轻盈的步伐，深情款款地飘然而至。她用她那轻飘的衣袖拂去了太阳的焦热，将明亮和清爽撒给人大地;她用她那宽大的的衣袖挡住风寒，却捧起累累硕果献给人间。

我爱秋天，爱她海一般的稻田;爱她黄昏时的点点归鸦;爱她如花似火的落叶……

秋天，像可爱的娃娃，洋溢着幸福的希望;秋天，像成熟的少女，编织着收获的梦幻;秋天，像慈祥的母亲，采摘着丰收的喜悦。

秋姑娘把田野染成了金黄色，秋风吹过，一层层金黄色的稻浪涌向天边，像是在为勤劳的人们唱一曲丰收的赞歌。

她悄悄地走来，带来一件红衣裳，一件黄衣裳。瞧，远处的山像被镀上了一层金色，从上面飘飘悠悠地“飞下”无数“黄蝴蝶”，它们一起在半空中盘旋。不知过了多久，衣裳由深黄慢慢变成了浅黄，浅黄又慢慢变成了褐黄。你看，它们多像一个个顽皮的小鬼。瞧那边山上，高粱如醉，简直是一片红海，遮盖了半个天空，和霞光一起，红的如燃烧的火焰。这一黄一红连成一片，给人一种说不出的温暖。

朝阳升起来了，把秋天的天空照的异常明亮。被秋天野花装点得色彩斑斓的山坡，在阳光下更加绚丽。枫树的树冠被风吹的沙沙作响，枫叶脱离了树枝，随风悠悠荡荡地飘落，用最后一点力气画下了一道优美的弧线。

秋天带着一身衣裳，悄悄地溜进了小院。落叶飘洒在小院里，看上去给小院铺上了一层“叶被”。在无花果挺着它那光秃秃的枝杈，几个残留在枝头来不及成熟的果实，在萧瑟的秋风中轻轻摇摆;葡萄树和桃树也谢尽了叶片，只剩下相互交错的杂支;只有秋菊，还在一片金黄色中抖动着不敢凋谢的绿叶……

人们都爱秋天，爱她那秋高气爽，爱她那云淡日丽，爱她那香飘四野。秋天，使人们的笑容格外灿烂。

我爱秋天，更爱她默默奉献的精神!

诗人冰心说过：“天上的风雨来了，鸟儿躲进母亲的巢里;人间的风雨来了，女儿躲进母亲的怀里。”家，不就是包容你我的怀抱吗? The poet Bingxin said: "The wind and rain in the sky are coming, the birds hide in the mothers nest;"Home, isnt it tolerant you and my arms?

我生活在一个普通的家庭里，爸爸、妈妈、弟弟和我是这个温馨“殿堂”里的快乐成员，我和弟弟就是爸爸妈妈心爱的“天使”，他们爱我们，就像我们爱他们一样。

我有一个家，一个温馨又美好的家，我的家中生活尽管算不上多么豪华，但就是这些平凡而又普通的小事令我感受到了家的温暖与幸福。

我有一个家，一个由四个人组成的家，一个平凡普通而又让人羡慕的家。在我的家庭生活中，家人们互相关心互相帮助，因此我生活得很幸福。在我家中，有勤劳的爸爸，贤惠的妈妈，听话的弟弟和身体十分棒的奶奶。爸爸和妈妈十分孝敬奶奶，弟弟和我也挺懂事，所以就组成了一个和谐的家。

我爱我家，爱家中的一景一物，爱家中的一草一木，在我看来，这些都是的。因为这里有我那金色的童年，有我那挥不去的记忆，还有我那最美好的回忆。

我爱我家，爱我家中那每天都互相关爱的亲人，是他们给了我一个家，给了我一切，给了我他们所有的爱，令我体会到了家的温暖。

我爱我家，爱我家中的……

家，令我体验到了人间的真爱，所以我爱我家。

我觉得自己长大了，想学一些家务。做什么好呢?

思来想去，我决定做鸡蛋炒番茄。我把这个想法告诉了妈妈，没想到妈妈欣然同意了，我高兴地跳了起来。

总算盼到做饭的时候了。我来到厨房，从冰箱里拿了两个番茄、三个鸡蛋，准备开始炒菜。

我先把番茄洗干净，再切成小块，放在一边，然后开始磕鸡蛋。我拿起第一个鸡蛋，轻轻一磕，没有磕开。我又多用了一点力气再一磕，还是没有磕开。鸡蛋鼓着肚子，好像在神气地说：“你那么小，想磕开我，没门儿!”我很不服气，对自己说：“谁说我磕不开鸡蛋?”我用力一磕，鸡蛋终于破了一个口。我顺着口用手一掰，蛋清弄了我一手。

妈妈告诉我，可以用手指自己掰开，不能用蛮力的。我试着轻轻一掰，还真的打好鸡蛋了，可以下锅了。因为看见妈妈煮饭都带着围裙，我又没有，所以很怕油溅到身上，是会很痛的。于是我把蛋一放下了锅，就快速地躲开，看着溅起的油花，我真庆幸自己躲开了而没有被那滚烫的油花击中。炒了一会儿，我觉得差不多了，就把切好的番茄倒了进去炒了一会儿，鸡蛋番茄炒均匀后，我把它们盛到盘子里，端上了饭桌。

妈妈尝了一口我炒的鸡蛋西红柿，夸我的手艺很不错。我赶紧也拿起筷子夹了一块鸡蛋，吹了吹，放进嘴里。嗯，好吃!

毕竟这是我第一次动手炒菜，所以我觉得这顿饭格外香!

秋风飒爽，带着丝丝凉意来到了人间。它越过小溪，穿过丛林，翻过高山，最后，停留在了那如画的田野上。 The autumn wind is cool, and it comes to the world with a bit of coolness.It crossed the stream, passed through the jungle, turned over the mountains, and finally stayed on the painting field.

远远望去，一块块稻田井然有序地排列着，到处一片金黄，令人心中充满了醉意。习习的秋风拂过，一株株轻轻地摇曳着身姿，犹如在金色的大海中，泛起了浪花。那一朵朵浪花拥挤着、嬉闹着，发出“沙沙”的响声，时而缓，时而急，时而轻，时而响，仿佛在演奏一曲成熟的赞歌。

走近稻田，一阵阵谷香便扑鼻而来。循着谷香，我不由地仔细看稻穗那硕大的穗头。颗颗穗粒，错落排列，多像小姑娘扎的麻花辫啊!它们有的已成熟，鼓得圆圆的;有的破了个小口子，探着脑袋，惊奇地瞧着这花花世界;有的似乎还未睡醒，把“被子”裹得紧紧的……还有那半绿半黄的稻叶举着宝剑，尽心地守护着它的孩子们。

田埂上到处开满了野花，它们穿着各色的迷你短裙，仰着脸，冲着秋姑娘直笑哩!绿油油的叶子，像两只嫩嫩的小手随风挥舞着。

稻田旁边是一片玉米地。高高的玉米杆昂着头，挺着胸，一副高高在上的样子。上面挂满了又大又长的玉米棒，拉开包裹它们的绿叶，一个个身穿嫩黄小背心的“胖娃娃”露了出来。它们紧紧靠在一起，透过叶缝向外张望。

不远处的菜地里，也很热闹。鲜嫩欲滴的大白菜，身披紫袍的茄子，火艳艳的朝天椒……它们焦急而有耐心地等待着农民伯伯把它们带回家。

看着这芳香四溢硕果满园的田野，我相信，明天的生活一定会更加美好。

今天是个很特别的一天，随着立冬，我们迎来了一年里的第一场雪。在冬天连大地妈妈也冷得发抖的时候，孝顺的雪姑娘纷纷扬扬的从天上赶了过来，给大地穿上了一件雪白的棉袄。

轻飘飘的雪落到屋檐上、大地上。小树穿上了白衣;公路盖上了白毯;房屋戴上了白帽子……”整个世界变得银装素裹，到处一片白。亮晶晶的小雪花满天开放，洁白的小雪花飘啊飘啊!这使我不禁想起两句诗：“忽如一夜春风来，千树万树梨花开。”雪犹如天女散花;又如蒲公英的种子自由飞翔;还似千千万万只飞舞的白蝴蝶。好不美丽。

中午我决定出去看看，果不其然，外面银白的一片。我走在雪地上，雪发出“嘎吱、嘎吱”的声音，就像一个小孩欢快的笑着。这时，我脚下一滑，打了个趔趄，差点跌倒在地上，回头一看，原来是那调皮的雪在作怪，为我不再被雪“暗算”，我拿起铲子，和爷爷一起扫起了雪。

说干就干!我肩上扛一个五尺长的铲子，就在门口铲起来了。我握着铲子的杆，对准冰面就是一阵猛敲猛打，把我身边的整冰拍成了七零八落的十几个小碎片，然后爷爷用扫帚把它们扫到一块去，当雪越堆越多时，我又一铲一铲地把它们倒入旁边的水桶里，但雪就像一个调皮的娃娃，跟我的铲子玩起了躲猫猫，我费了好大劲才让它们乖乖得跑进铲子。当雪渐渐堆满水桶时，爷爷就把他们倒入了旁边的沟里。这样的配合天衣无缝，可过了会，我渐渐体力不支了，只好停下铲子休息，但看着经过我劳动后干干净净又闪闪发光的地面，我感到了快乐。

这个元旦，有美丽的雪景供我观赏，又有快乐的劳动让我体会，真特别。

Every May in Chinese lunar calendar is Dragon Boat Festival, do you know anything about it? Let me speak for you.

Once upon a time, there was a patriotic poet Qu Yuan, once he went to Beijing to go to work, see a decline of state variable, then vote Miluo River to commit suicide. Before he died, he wrote a poem. People in order to commemorate the patriotic poet, the annual Lunar New Year in May at the beginning of a dragon boat festival.

The main contents of the Dragon Boat Festival is the dragon boat racing, zongzi.

Dragon boat racing scene is very lively, crowded shore. Just listen to the sound of gunfire, paddled boat people desperately, but the river is full of cheering.

Rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves, is for filling, with glutinous rice. When the package is very sticky, not professionals, but the package is not good!

According to legend, the dragon boat race is to salvage the Miluo River to die of the patriotic poet Qu Yuan. Threw rice dumplings into the river, is to let the fish and shrimp to eat, not eat Qu Yuans body.

In modern society, most people are under the higher pressure than ever

before and some people cannot handle the stress well and choose some extreme

ways to avoid or settle their stress.However, is stress a bad thing? As far as I

am concerned, everything has two coins, and we also need to realize it from two

aspects.

For one thing, stress is a kind of mental burden caused by nervousness or

anxiety. In modern society, stress is mostly caused by the high requirements or

heavy burden from surroundings or us, such as stress from peers or stress in

economy. If we cannot handle the stress well, we would be easy to be in a

negative mood and lost our motivation and courage to keep going or struggle with

difficulties. In this aspect, stress is a threat for our body and mental.

However, for another, stress can also be changed into a kind of motivation

if we handle it well. For example, when you find that you are surpassed by your

classmates in an examination, you feel stressful but at the same time, you also

tell yourself that you need to work harder to surpass him next time. Under this

stress, you will find yourself have more motivation and energy to study. In this

point, stress is a propeller for us to get more improvements.

Thus, we need to use a dialectical method to treat stress and handle it

properly。

有一天，妈妈很晚都没有回来，我很饿，于是我决定自己给自己炒个鸡蛋吃。

可是我并不会炒鸡蛋呀!该怎么炒呢?我回想妈妈炒鸡蛋时的样子，“哦!对了。”我拍手高兴地叫道，“应该先打鸡蛋。”我从冰箱里取出了一个鸡蛋，在碗边使劲地敲了一下，顺着敲开的地方掰开蛋壳，让蛋液流进碗里，然后拿起筷子迅速地搅拌起来，直到蛋清和蛋黄混为一体，才把第一步完成。接下来我给锅里倒了一些油，把火打着，等油热的有点冒烟，我就把搅拌好的鸡蛋倒进锅里，只听到“刺啦”一声，蛋液在油锅里迅速扩散并膨胀起来，我赶紧拿起铲子把快要粘到一起的鸡蛋分开，搅拌了几下，蛋炒好了，我发现锅里飘了一层油泡泡，为什么呢?我把炒好的鸡蛋倒到碗里，才发现原来是我的油倒的实在太多了的缘故。

吃着油腻腻的鸡蛋，可我一点也不觉得难吃，因为这是我亲手炒的鸡蛋，我的心里甜滋滋的。

年年辞旧岁，岁岁迎新年。元旦节，这个一年一度令人释怀、兴奋的日子，对于我，自懂事的时候起，似乎就没有过个什么鲜样来，以往这时候发生过什么，脑海里象个抽空的瓶子，没有一点印象。2009年元旦节不同了，这天所做的所做的事，仿佛已深深地铬在心间，想必以后应该不会再没有痕迹了!

今年的元旦节，妻儿提出了一个小小的要求，要求我挤出元旦节这天时间，陪他们攀岩。这个要求，是妻儿早在几年以前就提出了的，因为工作忙，始终满足不了他们。

儿子酷爱体育运动，尤其是攀岩运动，经常在学校的比赛中拿奖。他要求我陪同做一次户外山体攀岩与他比赛，妻子十分赞同。我很明白他们心里面在想着什么——儿子想要一个多陪陪他的健康的爸爸;妻子想要一个身材“苗条”的健康的丈夫!这是他们多年来的共同愿望!

读书时，我也很爱好攀岩，儿子算接上我了，这是喜事!不过，这玩艺已十多年没玩了，不是因为懒，主要是工作忙，没有时间。要说空闲的话，只能指望节假日，但每逢节假日的时候，又需要把时间放在请客访友上，为今后的工作打好基础。因此节假日，家都很少回，居住老家的母亲，怕已有三、四年没看了，想起来就很内疚，觉得自己太自私、太不孝!

与几位朋友有个同感，参加工作后，因为时间关系，平时很少体能煅练，满天吃吃喝喝的，体形越来越胖，走路都觉吃力。妻儿的要求太合理了，应该支持!不要再让他们为自己的身体担忧，增加心理负担。再说，往年的元旦节老是吃吃喝喝的，今儿少一年也不会损了什么，老掉牙的生活方式没有太大意义。今年答应他们的这个要求，也是偿试一下节假生活的新滋味。

国庆节放假了!又可以见到爸爸那张迷人的笑脸了。我们一起整理好行装，准备开着小汽车去杭州看爸爸。

我迫不及待地爬上汽车带着那愉快的心情，出发了。天黑了，天空中看不到云朵，太阳朝西方落下，对着我们笑，好像在说：“再见了!”天空不高兴了，它嘟着嘴，黑沉沉的，像换上了一块黑布。

出了罗阳，小星星们给天空加了一道光彩，使天空变得更美丽了。星星们像小眼睛一样皎洁地向我们眨了眨，四周射出金色的光芒，在漆黑的天空中照呀照呀……黑夜先生忙着把有光亮的地方消灭掉，哄人们睡觉。月亮像在对我们说：“祝你们一路平安!”我趴在窗户旁，看着这美好的画面，妈妈那手灵活地摆弄着方向盘，在弯弯曲曲的小路上行驶着。树叶簌簌地响着，大树挥着粗壮的手臂，向我们招手，草丛中蟋蟀弹奏着乐曲，好像在演奏轻柔的小夜曲……不知不觉中，我睡着了。

一阵摇晃把我吵醒了，我迷迷糊糊地睁开眼睛，发现四周琳琅满目的灯笼挂在每户人家的门前，红红的灯笼像个红皮球，照亮了整条街，原来，这里是景宁，人们快乐极了，在广场上跳啊转啊。他们的眉毛都笑成月牙状了。一排排金壁辉煌的房子密密麻麻地站在一起，好像在举行欢迎仪式。

上了高速，妈妈加大马力，车子像离弦箭一样冲了出去，直奔杭州。

终于到了，现在已经很晚了，我昏昏欲睡，一边打着哈欠一边一摇一晃地下了车，恨不得马上倒头就睡。

终于可以回到爸爸的怀抱里了。

Almost every child will complain about their parents sometimes. It is

natural, because when people stay together for a long time, they will start to

have argument. But ignore about the unhappy time, our parents love us all the

time. No matter what happen to us, they will stand by our sides. We should be

grateful to them and try to understand them.

Here is a difference between science and technology.Science is a method of

answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical

problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between

observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to

organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with

tools,techniques, and procedures for implementing the findings of science.

Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the

progress in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who

seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth with the highest degree of

accuracy and certainty, cannot pay heed to their own or other peoples likes or

dislikes, or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists

discover may shock or anger people--as did Darwins theory of evolution. But

even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the

option of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology;we do not have

the option of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic

aircraft-flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe

polluted air. Unlike science, progress in technology must be our slave and not

the reverse. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve peopie--people in

general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who

presently wish to gain advantage for themselves.

We are all familiar with the abuses of technology. Many people blame

technology itself for widespread pollution, resource depletion and even social

decay in general--so much so that the promise of technology is obscured. That

promise is a cleaner and healthier world. If wise applications of science and

technology do not lead to a better world, what else will?

我家有几只小乌龟，它们很可爱。

小乌龟的眼睛就像两颗黑宝石，三角形的嘴巴，短短的尾巴。它们的腿上有很多的肉，走起路来一摇一摆的。当小乌龟伸长了脖子的时候，你会发现小乌龟的脖子上也有一层肉，就像是小乌龟戴上了厚厚的围巾。

小乌龟们也是我的好朋友，时常逗得我不亦乐乎。

记得有一次，我无聊便去去看看小乌龟们，一只最小的乌龟，爬到了另一只大乌龟的背上，在上面手舞足蹈，一副洋洋得意的样子。没一会儿，大乌龟好像看不下去小乌龟耀武扬威的样子，猛地把小乌龟甩了下去，小乌龟一下四脚朝天，我不禁大笑了起来。

我没事的也会去逗逗小乌龟们，给他们喂一些食物。有一次我和平常一样丢下几颗龟食，以为它们肯定又会争先恐后的抢起来，但他们却将龟食踢来提去像是踢上了世界杯，各不相让。

听我说完我家的小乌龟们，你是不是也想养小乌龟了呢?
